77. How can the court help me in proving paternity?

An application may be made before the Court for Declaration of Paternity in order to be sure who one's father is by way of DNA testing. This application can be done by affidavits in cases where parties are consenting. On the other hand an application may be filed and a summons served to the interested party for the court to order a DNA test that will determine who one's biological father is.
